Low output

OVERALL OPINION

I've had a few months, I had the opportunity to make some rpeter with a concert and Save a few things to see what it is ...

Three striking characters:
Low-level output is a default for me was becaufe makes me push my max pramp that makes me well: I dgueulasse sound. I am a stage o I have to play other pramp to have a good sound ... But it is an advantage in noisy environment (typically poorly scne RULES, RPET with deaf musicians) because he cash out the high levels trs.
Trs-high directivity is an advantage because then there gure that the voice that goes, so no feedback (well, much much less) tracks trs own voice even live. a can be a disadvantage: unconsciously I close my eyes when I Braille, and I m'loigne some of the micro ... or it will not pick up virtually nothing outside of a small virtual bouboule 5-10 cm in front of the mic, so often lost phrases entires of my song ...
-Its a little port on medium-high medium, rather on the low mids -> it does not sound at all like a sm58. a can be an advantage for those who like me have a voice a bit "thin" or lgre. This also comes from the fact that as we should stick the lvre the microphone, it captures well the bass. This cash trs trs well plosives. But the sound is sweet and clean: it can safely undergo a small EQ ...

For résumé, the main advantage is that the directivity trs Troit can raise the sound without much feedback, so use a good big comp so we finally hear the passages clear and dlicats ...

I bought used on ebay because it's quite expensive in Europe (+ or - 300) and I do it again this election!

Edit of 12/02/2008: it is always my microphone prfr. Without question, I bought a lot more (Neumann KMS 105), may well be the + end, infinitely far rsiste feedback and so he remains in the closet (it's sad, I know) .
